xapian index delays

It's Jan 31st today; my search in gmane.comp.lang.r.general isn't picking up
posts from Jan 17th, namely
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.general/54018 . Is this to be expected?

Thanks.

Understood. Perhaps you can reconsider if more users are shut out.
Thanks.

number of gmane groups?

I've just been looking around gmane.org for a page that states 
the current number of gmane groups? Is there such a page? I'd 
like to link to it in an article I'm writing.

Thank you!
  and thank you for Gmane
   Nancy

I just found it:

  8108 groups
   mentioned at the bottom of <http://gmane.org/>

Maybe this number could also go on the Statistics page :-)

Message went to wrong newsgroup

I just posted a message to gmane.linux.jpackage.general and
gmane.comp.jakarta.ant.user.  It hasn't shown up in the latter group
yet, and when I read it in the former group, it shows that it was sent
to gmane.comp.apache.excalibur.user.

I'm 99.999% sure  that I didn't accidentally type "excalibur" instead of
"ant".  I haven't watched or read anything about the Arthurian legend
recently (not even Monty Python) and I didn't even know that there was
an Apache project called Excalibur.

What gives?

I am seeing the same problem with search indices on several other list archives
- seems to be system wide

Well, I'm stumped.  It suddenly started working for me, earlier this afternoon (EST).  Changed nothing
here.  Thanks for
helping to debug.  Sorry for the noise.

mail-relay.eunet.no

Hi, an MTA claiming to be mail-relay.eunet.no (193.71.71.242)
apparently had difficulties to connect with ciao.gmane.org
from 2006-01-09 until yesterday:

<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.usenet.format/30583/raw>
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.text.unicode.devel/20570/raw>

JFTR, the problem is obviously solved, but I was about to ask
the author of one of the two articles what's going on until I
saw the same phenomenon in another group.

                           Bye, Frank

Problem with new.gmane.org

Hi all,

since a few hours, the newsserver does not contain any newsgroups anymore.
Thunderbird keeps asking me to remove all subscribed groups, and a refresh list
yields an empty list. Not even this gmane.discuss group is there any more.

Regards,

Andreas

I've been on holiday for the last two weeks, and the cron job I set up
to update the search index didn't work correctly because PATH wasn't
set correctly for it.  Sorry about that.

I've just set off an update by hand, which I guess will take less than 2
hours to handle the backlog.  I'll fix the cron job too.

Cheers,
    Olly
